• I don't agree, if you shut your eyes and listen, it almost sounds like a daytime 'Funeral Direct' insurance ad, I was bored from the start.  Showed nothing about the product, just an attractive woman trying not to fall asleep. I just assumed they were talking about the inflight entertainmen...

This would ensure no wastage and the costs are well covered (in economy anyways). I...
